2. Glue a string of sequins (which you can buy at Joann's) along the outside of the heart.3. Spiral in until you reach the center and stop.

4. Add an alligator clip (which you can buy at Joann's also) or any other kind of clip to the felt backing at the bottom. Be sure it is close to the bottom so the heart will sit in the middle of your shoe. Test it before you glue. Ban.do turns the hearts in the opposite direction. It's your preference. I might be easier to center the hearts on the toes if you place it pointed side toward the toe.

Really wonderful tutorial! I stumbled across it while searching Google for 'sequined hearts' after falling in love with a $25 pair of red sequined heart shoe clips from Ban.do that I just couldn't somehow justify buying! Now I'm going to make these! And after pricing the supplies on Hobby Lobby, found that I can make 12 PAIRS of shoe clips for $26!
